Jules Wilson Gives the 411 on SummerHouse Carlsbad’s Interior Design

Oct 12, 2016

While SummerHouse Carlsbad is nearly sold out, two award-winning fully furnished homes are still available to own. The hotly anticipated model home (Residence 2) and sales office (Residence 1) are ready for those looking for a turn-key home on the coast.

Featuring furniture, art, accent pieces and more, the homes were designed by award-winning interior design firm, Jules Wilson Interior Design. We recently sat down with Jules to ask her about her approach to designing these exclusive homes.

Q: TELL US ABOUT SUMMERHOUSE’S INTERIOR DESIGN. WHAT INSPIRED YOU?

A: The location provided a lot of inspiration. We wanted to mimic the coastal landscape with light colors and soft and airy textures. The key was to make the homes timeless and understated, while also being refined. And while we furnished the homes, we also made sure that owners could still express themselves in the interior by keeping the palate clean and simple.

Q: WHERE DID YOU GET THE FURNISHINGS?

A: We had some of the custom furniture handcrafted locally, including the lounge chairs in the bedroom and the custom sectionals, and we sourced from vendors that offered pieces with a classic, Cape Cod, east coast influence, while being updated.

Q: ANY ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN ELEMENTS THAT YOU PARTICULARLY LOVE?

A: The La Cantina doors that open onto the large lanais are fabulous. They allow owners to take advantage of San Diego’s incredible weather, and enjoy a true indoor/outdoor living experience.

Q: WHAT MAKES SUMMERHOUSE UNIQUE?

A: The site is truly one-of-a-kind, and the community was built to maximize the landscape, while still preserving it. You have these incredible views of the ocean to the west and the Buena Vista Lagoon to the east. And the Carlsbad Village is just a short stroll away. It really is a special place to live.
